How do I plant a Viburnum tinus 'Spirit'?

Proper soil preparation is crucial before planting Viburnum tinus 'Spirit'. This process ensures the soil is well-drained and rich in nutrients, which is vital for healthy plant growth. Mixing organic materials like compost into the existing soil improves water permeability and nutrient availability. Plants grown in pots can be planted year-round, except during frost periods. After planting, it's important to water the plants until they are well-rooted. The size of the plant determines the number of plants per square metre. For Viburnum tinus 'Spirit', consider planting 1 to 2 plants per m². Follow these planting instructions for best results.

Pruning a Viburnum tinus 'Spirit'

Viburnum tinus 'Spirit' benefits from regular pruning to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Pruning is best done in early spring, just after the flowering period. This helps to remove any dead or crossing branches, which can improve air circulation and prevent disease. Cutting back spent flowers can also promote new blooms. Use clean, sharp secateurs or pruning shears to make precise cuts. Keeping tools clean is important to avoid spreading any potential diseases. Regular pruning not only keeps the plant looking tidy but also supports its overall health and vitality.

Watering a Viburnum tinus 'Spirit'

Viburnum tinus 'Spirit' requires careful watering to thrive. This plant prefers well-drained soil and benefits from deep watering rather than frequent light watering. It's best to water during the early morning or late afternoon to minimise evaporation. During dry, sunny periods, check the soil regularly to ensure it needs water. Rainwater can be a great alternative to tap water. Ensure excess water can drain away to prevent root rot, whether the plant is in the ground or a pot. While Viburnum tinus 'Spirit' is somewhat drought-tolerant, newly planted specimens need regular watering until fully established. Drip irrigation systems are effective once the plant is well-rooted, but initial hand watering is essential.

Regular feeding enhances the plant's vitality, ensuring it remains lush and attractive throughout the year. Using organic fertilisers is recommended, as they prevent root and leaf burn that can occur with synthetic options. Consider Heijnen's Organic Starter Fertilizer in spring and Organic Maintenance Fertilizer in summer for optimal results. Apply fertiliser twice a year, adjusting the amount based on the plant's size. Ensure nutrients reach the roots by watering the garden during dry spells, allowing the fertiliser to dissolve and nourish the plant effectively.
